"Woody, Craig, and the team were great to work with and did an excellent job replacing my septic system. They were very responsive and communicated throughout the project. They were transparent about all pricing and honest. They did a great job with the install and the finish landscaping they did was more than I could have expected. I highly recommend them, they are busy for a good reason."

"I cannot put into words how thankful I am to have hired Delfino (Robert & Ariana) to level a section of my yard and add a gravel pad for a shed being built. They are super responsive, friendly, and more than fair. Saying I have a complicated yard is an understatement. I’ve had ridiculous quotes in the past and some who have told me what I needed was impossible. Delfino proved them wrong….and for much less money! They even surprised me with doing some work on my (also impossible) driveway at no extra cost because they had enough extra in materials. If you’re looking for kindness, fairness, and honesty..do yourself a favor and hire this incredible family business. You’ll be so thankful you did!! Thank you so much Robert & Ariana Delfino ❤️"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

They can if they’re not installed correctly or if the caps or covers were dislodged by a lawn mower or other yard equipment. This is why it pays to hire a reputable septic tank company that’s experienced in septic tank installation and maintenance. You should also check caps and covers often to see that they’re in place and take measures to tighten or secure them, provided it is safe to do so.

You should pump your septic tank once every two to four years for a family of four, depending on your septic tank size. You should pump a 1,000-gallon septic tank every two years, while a 1,500-gallon tank should be pumped every four years. Water usage also affects how often you should pump your septic tank. If you notice slow drains, foul smells, or gurgling sounds from your drains, you should pump your septic tank as soon as possible.

There are three layers of wastewater in a septic tank: scum (solid waste that floats to the top of the wastewater), liquid (the relatively clean liquid wastewater in between the two other layers), and sludge (solid waste that falls to the bottom of the wastewater). The buildup of sludge is one of the main reasons septic tanks need to be pumped. If the tank is more than 1/3 of the way full with a combination of sludge and scum, it’s time to call a pro for pumping.

A cistern works by collecting rainwater from your gutters and downspouts and storing it in a holding tank. The holding tank can be installed above or below ground, and the size will depend on your household needs. The stored water can then be used for household tasks, watering your garden, and even for drinking water.

Frozen well pipes make themselves known quickly, as your faucets slow down to a trickle or shut down completely. If you notice a serious reduction in flow in the winter from toilets, showers, kitchen faucets, and other plumbing fixtures, a frozen pipe or two is to blame. Another tell-tale sign is frost or ice on exposed pipes outside.
